z890. No problems.

I hope you can find someone who has tried it.
We haven't tried it. It certainly isn't supported. What hardware are you
planning to run on? VM
does not virtualize everything (in fact, cannot). z/VM 5.x is supported
only on zSeries and System
z9. VM/ESA 2.4.0 does not (officially) run on a z9.
It might work, especially if you aren't using anything that is hardware
dependent. (For example,
370 guests will NOT work.)
The last release of VM I can find that was listed (in the GI manual) as
supporting VM/ESA 2.4.0
guests is z/VM 4.3.0. The GI manual includes the caveat:
"In general, an operating system, version, or release is supported as a
guest of
VM only on hardware (processors, DASD, and other devices) for which support
has been announced for that operating system, version, or release to run
native,
in an LPAR, or as a guest of VM."
